I jinxed myself....

Well, I guess I should have known better. In my last post, I was so excited because Isaac had been well for awhile now. That was Saturday morning before nap. When he woke up from his nap, he started coughing and it sounded pretty croupy. We've dealt with the croup before and that's all I thought it was. Besides, there's not much you can do about a sick child on a Saturday afternoon. He coughed all night long Saturday, most of the day Sunday, and most of Sunday night too. So, first thing this morning I give the doc a call and see if they can get him in. Meanwhile, Ms. Michelle said he fell asleep before lunch and was coughing pretty hard the whole time he was asleep. Darren went and got him a little after 3:00 to carry him in and I asked him to call me when they got out. Well, when 5:00 rolled around and I was ready to leave work and still hadn't heard anything, I got worried so I called him on his cell phone. Imagine my surprise when he told me Isaac had strep throat and RSV!!! They gave him a penicillin shot while he was there and we are now using a breathing machine for at least the next week. We go back to the doc Wed. morning for them to check and evaluate him.Please say an extra prayer for my little guy that he gets well soon!

Bless his little heart. He has had a rough Winter. The rest of the daycare crew has the runny nose and cough. I've doubled up on the sanitizing this week. All we can do is ride it out I guess. Hurry Spring hurry!
